Rwy'n ddiolchgar i Ken Skates am godi'r mater pwysig hwn yma heddiw, ac fel y nodwyd gennych, Weinidog, mae sawl elusen dda yn gwneud gwaith gwych yn y maes hwn eisoes, ac rwy'n cyfeirio at y Sefydliad Diogelwch Fferm a Sefydliad DPJ, sydd â'r llinell gymorth…

Diolch i chi Dirprwy Lywydd dros dro—mae angen teitl mwy cynnil arnoch chi, rwy'n amau. Trefnydd, hoffwn i ofyn am ddatganiad gan y Gweinidog addysg ynghylch cynnydd wrth ymdrin â phresenoldeb concrit awyredig awtoclafiedig cyfnerth mewn ysgolion. Yr wythnos…

Cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog
Diolch am eich ymateb, Prif Weinidog. Wrth gwrs, bydd eich cyfnod yn y swydd yn dod i ben yn fuan ac ni fydd unrhyw adolygiad yn cael ei gwblhau yn eich amser fel Prif Weinidog. Ac i roi clod i chi, wrth gwrs, rydych chi wedi glynu'n gadarn at y polisi hwn yn…

Of course, there's a moral dilemma here, isn't there, as well, because we all, around this table, and as a Government, in the Chamber stand up and say that everybody should be in receipt of things like the national living wage, but when the funding seems…

There are, obviously, ways in which capital can be used, not specific to the housing support grant, but to deal with some of the pressures that housing support grant-type funding also deals with—I guess that's the point I'm trying to make. I'm not sure if…

Craffu ar Gyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer 2024-25 - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3: Y Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
There are other ways in which that capital could be used to mitigate some of the issues and risks that are being presented within homelessness services, aren't there?

Craffu ar Gyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer 2024-25 - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3: Y Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Just a bit further on the housing support grant, Minister, you were absolutely right at the start to point to the fact that your full MEG needs to be understood, a little bit at least, to appreciate the pressures elsewhere. And obviously one of the decisions…

To be very clear, then, you're not expecting the timeline you originally hoped for this proposed Bill to be implemented to be affected.

Craffu ar Gyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer 2024-25 - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3: Y Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
All right. And then, just moving on to the White Paper proposals in regard to homelessness, again, the WLGA, in their evidence, obviously representing the councils, have indicated that they would certainly need any financial implications of the proposals…

On that particular point, I'm just reviewing the evidence we received from the Welsh Local Government Association, which is in the pack today as well, and I'll quote what they've said in relation to that point. So, they've said: 'This sustained increase in…

So, on that specific point of homelessness, and the immediate issues that councils are facing around temporary accommodation in particular, do you think the funding, the budget, that local authorities will be receiving is going to be enough to enable them to…

Thank you, Chair, and good afternoon, Minister. Thank you for taking the time to be with us this afternoon. I'm just going to touch on homelessness for a moment; it may drift into other areas, as many things are linked together. I wonder, perhaps, if you…

Just a quick question further to that point on the way in which health boards set their budgets. I'm interested—. And alongside, obviously, local authorities as well. As a finance Minister, how do you view that moral position, I guess, where a local authority…

Sorry, just to explain the point they were making. They were talking about bad decisions, where they're having to, probably, remove preventative services, which will in the long run be much worse for your budgets, as finance Minister, but also of course for…

And we heard from the WLGA witnesses this morning that they feel as though decision making has moved from being just difficult decisions to make to now becoming bad decisions to make, which of course will have a longer term impact on pressures in the future…

So, with all that in mind, does it concern you at all, Minister, the levels of resilience in councils?

Craffu ar Gyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer 2024-25 - sesiwn dystiolaeth 2: Y Gweinidog Cyllid a Llywodraeth Leol
Thanks, Chair. Good morning, Minister, thank you for taking the time to be with us this morning. I'd be grateful if perhaps you could briefly outline how you see the resilience of councils in Wales at the moment from a financial perspective.
